Description

The linear excitation of electron-ion two-stream instability excited in inhomogeneous, magnetized isothermal plasma (Te=Ti) is investigated analytically. Expressions for the frequency, growth rate and conditions of instability are obtained when the current velocity slightly exceeds the instability threshold velocity. Inhomogeneity in density and existence of external static magnetic field may stabilize the instability. (author)
